Thank you Paul, It’s been a real pleasure to learn your technique. Beyond what I had imagined. I am trained to be a TCM practitioner. It’s all very serious and stern at times.

Great day today in Leamington.  It’s a fantastic treatment and I loved doing the intradermals – it felt vaguely surgical!

I attended the master class having practiced auricular acupuncture for two years and, although less experienced than others on the course, Paul always made me feel confident at every stage. I had not needled certain body points or used needles over 3mm so I had to get used to the technique and acupuncture points before… Read more “Tara Harley, Brighton, UK.

I have found the course to be well structured and will definitely be recommending it to fellow acupuncturists.

Thank you for your time, and encouraging support.

I thought your course was well organized and very informative. I found the videos to be very helpful in terms of putting what was written into practice and seeing the rhythm with which you work.

I am writing again to tell you that my Bell’s palsy treatments are so successful I get new patients all the time, having heard of other’s success.
